Edits

Photos were cropped, resized and lightly warmed. Edited versions of CC BY-SA photos are shared under the same licence.

The theme’s own imagery

The book covers, the author portrait, the desk still life, the ink wash, the signing scene and the wordmark come from the original Inkwell Press theme and are carried over unchanged (only resized and re-encoded). As in the original, two cover designs are shared across the four titles.
